Business Segments | 13. Business Segments We operate in two segments: Marketplaces and Media. Our Marketplaces segment consists of several leading art and design marketplaces where large communities of artists can market and sell their original artwork or their original designs printed on a wide variety of products. Our Media segment consists of our leading owned and operated media properties that publish content, including videos, articles and other content formats, on various category-specific properties with distinct editorial voices, as well as other media properties focused on specific categories or interests that we either own and operate or host and operate for our partners. Our chief operating decision maker (the “CODM”) uses revenue and operating contribution to evaluate the profitability of our operating segments; all other financial information is reviewed by the CODM on a consolidated basis. Segment operating contribution reflects earnings before corporate and unallocated expenses and also excludes: (a) depreciation expense; (b) amortization of intangible assets; (c) share-based compensation expense; (d) interest and other income (expense); (e) income taxes; and (f) contingent payments to certain key employees/equity holders of acquired businesses. Our CODM does not evaluate our operating segments using asset information. We do not aggregate our operating segments. The majority of our principal operations and assets are located in the United States.
